• Client Library Documentation
• Product Documentation

In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:

1. Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
2. Enable billing for your project.
3. Enable the Google Cloud Natural Language API.
4. Setup Authentication.

$ gem install google-cloud-language

require "google/cloud/language"

language_service_client = Google::Cloud::Language.new
content = "Hello, world!"
type = :PLAIN_TEXT
document = { content: content, type: type }
response = language_service_client.analyze_sentiment(document)

• Read the Client Library Documentation for Google Cloud Natural Language API to see other available methods on the client.
• Read the Google Cloud Natural Language API Product documentation to learn more about the product and see How-to Guides.
• View this repository's main README to see the full list of Cloud APIs that we cover.

To enable logging for this library, set the logger for the underlying gRPC library. The logger that you set may be a Ruby stdlib Logger as shown below, or a Google::Cloud::Logging::Logger that will write logs to Stackdriver Logging. See grpc/logconfig.rb and the gRPC spec_helper.rb for additional information.

Configuring a Ruby stdlib logger:

require "logger"

module MyLogger
  LOGGER = Logger.new $stderr, level: Logger::WARN
  def logger
    LOGGER
  end
end

# Define a gRPC module-level logger method before grpc/logconfig.rb loads.
module GRPC
  extend MyLogger
end

This library is supported on Ruby 2.0+.

However, Ruby 2.3 or later is strongly recommended, as earlier releases have reached or are nearing end-of-life. After June 1, 2018, Google will provide official support only for Ruby versions that are considered current and supported by Ruby Core (that is, Ruby versions that are either in normal maintenance or in security maintenance). See https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/branches/ for further details.
